Your local branchYown's Boiler Service · Jacksonville, FL3501 West 20th St., Jacksonville
Yown’s Boiler Service has worked on industrial and commercial boilers since 1979 and is now part of Thermogenics. Our boiler mechanics, ASME code welders and pipefitters handle repairs, retubing, refractory, controls, maintenance, parts and rental boilers for Tallahassee plants, with 24/7 emergency service.
Tallahassee is part of our Jacksonville team’s service area, served from the Yown’s shop on West 20th Street. Our mechanics handle burners, controls and pressure parts.
On a breakdown, the crew restores heat and steam first, then traces the cause of the failure. The Jacksonville shop backs them up with parts, pump rebuilds and code welding. We plan scheduled work such as annual insurance inspections, preventative maintenance and retubing around your calendar and outage windows.
Tallahassee is covered by our Jacksonville team
Most of Tallahassee’s boiler rooms are in public and institutional buildings: the state government complex, university and college campuses, regional hospitals and research labs. These plants run hot water and steam all year.
The Capitol complex and state office buildings use boilers for heating, domestic hot water and kitchens. We handle maintenance plans, inspections, controls upgrades and repairs for government facilities.
Campus central plants and building boilers feed dorms, dining halls, labs and athletics. We service boilers, burners, deaerators and steam traps, and schedule work around the academic calendar.
Hospitals use steam for sterilization and humidification and need hot water every hour. We work on burners and combustion controls for both light summer loads and winter peaks.
Labs rely on steady steam and hot water for humidity control, process heat and building systems. Our team handles clean steam humidification, controls upgrades and planned maintenance.
Monthly, quarterly and annual preventative maintenance plans, annual insurance inspections, combustion and safety checks, deaerator inspections and steam trap surveys. We clean sooted tube sheets, clogged intake filters and dusty burner panels so the boiler fires clean and is ready for inspection.
Maintenance from JacksonvilleEmergency boiler and burner repair, retubing, refractory repairs and code welding under our ASME and National Board stamps. We troubleshoot flame safeguards, low-water cutoffs and controls from Autoflame, Siemens, Honeywell and Power Flame, and handle emergency replacement when a unit is beyond repair.
Repair servicesWe source parts for hundreds of boiler brands and models. When we rebuild your pump, you get a backup unit to run in the meantime. We stock McDonnell & Miller, Fireye, Kunkle, Spence and other brands, with more inventory through our partner Halmar Boiler Parts.
Parts & suppliesEmergency and planned-outage rentals come through Thermogenics: Thermocoil units from 150 to 500 HP, 250 psig MAWP, firing natural gas, propane or No. 2 oil. We install, start up and support them on site.
Rental boilers & fleetBoilers in Tallahassee fall under Florida’s Boiler Safety Act, Chapter 554 of the Florida Statutes. The act covers construction, installation, inspection and repair, with a focus on boilers in public assembly locations.
Tallahassee gets more winter freezes than peninsular Florida, so boilers here carry a short heating season on top of year-round hot water loads. Long stretches of light firing mean frequent cycling, which wears burners and wastes fuel. The cause often sits in the system around the boiler, such as poor turndown or weak condensate return.

Yes. Healthcare is one of our core markets. Hospital steam loads swing hard between winter and summer, so we look at turndown, O2 trim, deaerator operation and waterside cleanliness. We also support clean steam humidification and can plan a separate summer boiler when light loads cause short cycling.
Yes. We supply emergency and planned-outage rental boilers in the sizes listed above, with larger units on request. We handle delivery, installation, start-up and ongoing support.
